Late Recurrence of Anisometropic Amblyopia

Abstract

A 15-year-old boy whose anisometropic amblyopia was effectively treated with glasses was examined. Despite years of stability, his visual acuity decreased from 20/20 to 20/60 with poor glasses compliance. Although amblyopia recurrence is well recognized, this case emphasizes potential late recurrence after prolonged success. Fortunately, he improved to 20/20 after improved compliance.
